“Rose was an absolute dream of a sitter. They made sure we got pictures of the boys, left our house probably cleaner than my husband and I left it and was more than willing to meet with us on two separate occasions before our boarding sesh to help acclimate our more skittish doggo son. By mid-weekend, both dogs were fans of Rose and honestly, so am I. 10/10 would recommend.”
“TJ was great! He took care of my two babies with such love and attention. He was at my house when he said he would be and cuddled with my boys to make them feel safe. I would highly recommend TJ to watch your pets!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Breanna was an absolutely wonderful cat sitter, and I’m so grateful for the care she provided for my three cats over the holidays. She arrived right on time, was incredibly communicative, and very respectful of the private spaces in my home. Breanna kept me at ease by providing thoughtful updates and sharing photos, which truly meant a lot while I was away. It was clear my cats were comfortable and well cared for, and I appreciated her attention to detail and professionalism. I would absolutely book Breanna again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and trustworthy cat sitter.”
“Sarah was fantastic and we highly recommend her to anyone! She did a great job caring for our fickle pugs. She kept us updated with pictures and messages about how the dogs were doing. We felt totally comfortable leaving them in her care. Having Sarah stay with our pugs gave us peace of mind to enjoy our vacation.”
“Grettel has been amazing!! Scout is a very nervous and anxious dog and as soon as Grettel and Scout met I knew that Scout was going to be comfortable with Grettel! It only took him about 10 minutes to relax, which is huge for Scout!! She is also very thorough, which puts us at ease. She also provides video and pics of him while we are away! :) ”
“My wife and I love Paula!!! Almost as much as it appears that Elsie loves her! We are SO at ease knowing that Elsie will be cared for the same way that we care for her. SUCH A RELIEF AND A PLEASURE!”
“Katrina and her boyfriend, Ken, were very communicative, kind, and genuinely loved animals. Our dog, Jack, is a nervous boy, but they did the best they could in calming his nerves, and putting in the effort to gain his trust. I highly recommend!”
“Sofia was very communicative throughout the day and kept us updated, which gave us peace of mind. Most importantly, she got along really well with our dog, and he seemed very comfortable and happy with her. We would definitely recommend her!”
“Ianthe did an excellent job caring for my cats while staying at my home. She was detail oriented, reliable, and performed exactly as promised. The cats were well looked after and the house was just as I left it, calm and orderly. It’s always a relief to come home to happy pets and a peaceful home. Highly recommend her services!”
“Elizabeth was incredible, and we feel so lucky to have found her. This was not the easiest sit—our senior dog and younger cat require careful management and don’t always get along—but Elizabeth handled everything with so much patience, attentiveness, and care. It gave us real peace of mind knowing she was so capable and calm in navigating their dynamics. She kept us updated with the sweetest photos and little notes throughout our trip, which made being away so much easier (and honestly, we looked forward to her updates every day). Communication was always quick, clear, and thoughtful—she was super responsive and proactive if anything came up. On top of that, she treated our home with total respect and left everything in great shape. You can tell she genuinely cares—not just about doing a good job, but about the animals themselves. We would 100% have Elizabeth back and recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and truly exceptional sitter.”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 15. I started by watching a neighbor's dogs almost every weekend while they went out - I would walk them, feed them & bathe them. I also have had my own dogs since I was a kid! I'm currently not working so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets throughout the weekday & weekends. If you're interested, I'd be happy to take your dog on a hike for a longer walk/more exercise. Yes, I have a fenced in yard. When your dog is with me, I will treat them like my own and they will get loved on throughout their time with me.
“Lexi watched my three pets, including an older special needs cat. Her communication was wonderful - great question, photos and updates, and just a cheerful confidence that helped me feel very comfortable leaving them in her care. They and the house were in great shape when I returned and I could tell the cats and dog were well cared for. Thank you so much!”
“Olivia's always great. The kids are happy upon my return, she send pix while I'm away, which helps me not only feel confident that the critters are being well taken care of, but also feels like a little love letter from the dog & the cat. My preferred sitter.”
“We were so happy to find Aliza on the Rover app. We have a new rescue dog, Cobalt, and we were concerned about leaving him for the first time, while we went on a week long cruise that we booked last year. Aliza took great care of Cobalt and sent us frequent photos and updates to let us know how well he was doing. We will certainly hire Aliza again when we need a dog sitter.”
“Emily watched our dog Mouse for 16 days while we were halfway around the world. This was the longest we had ever been away from him and the farthest. We were a little nervous going into it but Emily made us feel so at ease. She sent updates every day usually multiple times a day. She would also tailor the timing of her updates to the timezone we were in which was much appreciated as well. We could tell Mouse was well taken care of and that she gave him a lot of love. We can’t wait to work with her again!”
“Regan did a wonderful job caring for my dog Daisy and my cat Eleanor. She did house sitting for the entire week if not longer while I was out of town. She maintained great communication and also was very perceptive about what the animals needed. Thank you, Regan. I look forward to working with you again”

Erin took wonderful care of my dogs and my home and was communicative, reliable, and professional.

Erin followed all of my instructions and asked questions, showing her attention to detail. Highly recommend!

FAQs for House Sitting - Tillson
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Tillson on Rover is $61.61 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 531 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Tillson. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Tillson walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Tillson maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Tillson choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Tillson. On Rover:
- 98% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
